If you're asking what the meaning of the RESTRICT= options are, they're
listed in the man page for ebuild(5), including:
test do not run src_test even if user has FEATURES=test.
which likely means that the package in question has a test suite that is
known to be broken, on Gentoo or in general.
(Side note: the man page only has one entry for PROPERTIES although eix
knows of at least 4. Is there somewhere else this kind of portage
information is documented?)
